Grayscale Registers BNB and HYPE Trusts, Laying Groundwork for ETF Products
Written by Ohris M. Greyoon, Blockchain & Crypto Expert
- Trust Registration: Grayscale has registered new trusts linked to BNB and HYPE in Delaware, marking an early step toward expanding its crypto investment products, although it has not confirmed any intention to submit ETF applications.
- Market Positioning: This move highlights Grayscale's plan to extend beyond traditional Bitcoin and Ether ETFs, gradually increasing exposure to emerging crypto assets, which may attract more institutional investors.
- Regulatory Environment: While the trust registrations do not indicate regulatory approval, Grayscale's optimistic outlook for future ETF applications reflects confidence in improving market conditions, particularly regarding regulatory clarity expected in 2026.
- Liquidity Trends: With ETF outflows exceeding $1 billion by the end of 2025, the registration of Grayscale's new trusts may be a strategic response to this trend, aiming to capture demand for emerging crypto assets.
